Next, 93: Ultimate Irony, wow, just... Just read the mutation yourself, and give me a minute to reroll all of my stats.
Okay, done, I'm not gonna be remixing every health point for every part of my body because screw that noise, but at least I have a few positives now, time to continue on my path of stupidity.

I no have table.

[Execute/Dumbo.exe]

Here's a link to the unofficial deadEarth resources page. I advise using the spreadsheet in "unofficial resources"


Here's a link to the character sheet. Bask in an entire page of unarmed moves.

It's the first link, but for sanities sake, it's a winding bunch of little irritating changes, like switching resilience and notoriety or whatever it's called, rerolling the health every limb (And the limb system is far too complex than it needs to be) and a bunch of other bullshit, like shuffling my mutations, not rerolling them, either, just... Shuffling the order.

[Dorsidwarf]

Shuffling the order can be important, since I think there's a mutation saying something like "All mutations above this in the radman list do not function"

[Flying Dice]

I opened to the newest page and found you guys making deadEarth characters. What did I miss? 

[NullForceOmega]

I'm letting them be silly, for the moment.  If the deadearth posts get too crowded I'll ask them to make their own thread, but for now it's fine.

Someone suggested trying a FATAL forum game again, so I rapidly intervened with a (still terrible) game which doesn't make me want to punch people through the computer screen.

[Rolan7]

Yeah this really does seem like FATAL chargen except with mutations instead of immature, disturbing themes.  Good choice, much better entertainment (:

No, it's more than than. It's that it's a much better designed game overall! So many fewer stats that affect other stats! So much easier to modify! Actual control over anything! It's amazing!

[Yoink]

This is pretty much amazing.
Who's going to GM? Do we have resources for GMing? Where is this batshit insanity going to be set?

"More playable than FATAL" is not a high bar to get over.  May as well say "this one doesn't involve quadratic equations."

[Tawa]

Oh man, we doing deadEarth? Gimme a sec while I roll up a radmanman. I hope I can get him killed off before the game starts, that would make him my 3rd deadEarth character ever and I'm not allowed to play because the other two also died.

[TheBiggerFish]

Heh.

I wonder how many possible combinations exist?

[BlackFlyme]

Sent to find a dragon that has been terrorizing a trading route, and end up finding it assaulting a military camp. We were still a few hundred feet away, and it was flying, but the Ranger managed to put an arrow into it.

Demon dragon damn near killed me, and went burrowing underground carrying both our Bloodrager and I in its mouth. Unlike the Rager, I couldn't attack, since I couldn't make the concentration check to use my Kineticist blasts.

It eventually rolled a one to maintain its grapple on the Rager, so he got free and Dim-Door'd to the surface, but it still had me.

Eventually the Arcanist was able to cast Earth Glide on the Oracle, whom had used Freedom of Movement on himself, and saved and healed my sorry ass. The dragon teleported out once it was brought to low health, but the Arcanist was able to scry on it, and we teleported to its lair and beat it while it was licking its wounds.

Here's the thing's base stats, if anyone is curious. The one we fought was a fair bit stronger, and could grapple with both its maw and its tail. We're level 10.

I'm getting a Ring of Freedom of Movement asap. Shit's not fun.

[Rolan7]

Yeah, being grappled sucks.  My druid took a level of Seeker of the Misty Isle just to get a few rounds of Freedom of Movement as a cleric domain power.  After being grappled and nearly killed by a kraken, and later a boneyard.

This is why I love playing a Wizard Conjuration Teleportation specialist in Pathfinder. Grappled? Nope, I Shift away as a swift action, no way to stop it short of antimagic field. Ruins the day of anything that tries to hold you down. The 8th level Dimensional Steps ability is also great for rescuing your allies. I've used it a bunch of times to grab grappled allies or pull unconscious allies away for healing.
